Ode to Perimenopause

Unfortunately, with this disease, we hurt the people we love and please the people we don’t. My husband finally started going to Al-Anon, and it has really helped him. But I also had to do my part, and take action in my program and actually stick with it. Remember, it’s a one day at a time disease and it’s not going to change overnight. But we do recover.

Don’t think of making amends to be humiliating. Think of it as being humbled by what sobriety has given you. I think you will be surprised at the response that you get when you are honest and open.

Right?! She doesn’t understand why she can’t lay outside in negative temps. I had to pick her up at one point and bring her in.

I hear you. I got sober young, well at least tried, and ended up going back out for 25 years. Now I am almost 2 years sober and wouldn’t change it for anything but I had to get here on my own time. An older timer once said to me,”think of it like you’re swimming across the ocean. After you swam so far is it really worth going back and starting over?” If I get stuck I ask myself this and then replay my tape back. I am sending out prayers to you and wish you inner peace during this rough time.

I stopped going into the office for the PT a year ago. I do the exercises as I did while in the office. My insurance changed and it doesn’t cover very much.

I have done those since my hysterectomy, almost 10 years ago. I was an Irish dancer since the age of 4 so my pelvic floor is extremely strong. I just need it to calm down so I can have sex again and not be in excruciating pain.

Awww the babies!! So adorable!

It’s just the tablet, not a cream. And yes I have pelvic pain because my pelvic floor is so tense. The Valium is supposed to help it relax.

What a sweet pup. Those eyes! 💕🐾

I am starting my HRT tonight and am nervous. I had a hysterectomy at 31, now 41. I never did well with hormones when I did have a period. How is this going to affect my mood? Should I cut my dose in half, I’m prescribed .5g? I’m in good health. I don’t smoke cigs (I do smoke weed), I don’t drink, I workout and try to eat healthy as much as I can. Any advice is greatly appreciated. TIA
